I think the current "deal" is almost guaranteed to unfreeze many times the amount of frozen assets Obama released, and will include a stupefying transfer of cash from federal coffers (i.e., our tax dollars).

Time will tell, but it should probably be noted that any comparison of "size" of this deal relative to the JCPOA is lunacy. That deal was done and had it been left in place there would be no need to make another fucking deal. Every penny in this "deal" is payment for the psychopath's insanity, first in shredding the JCPOA and second in starting his criminal war.
